Separating Label from Text boxes in a Wizard Form (Access 2007)

[bwallis9]

It appears on my installed Access 2007 that, when a form is created using the wizard, I can't move the Label or its associated Text box independent of one another; try to move one, they both move (even when I used the correct action; clicking and dragging the big black handle in the top left of the box. However, if this form is build from scratch using the design view, no problem moving these items on their own. Any ideas how I could correct this or work properly with these items would be greatly appreciated.

Does it help if you If you select the controls, then click the Remove button on the Arrange tab of the ribbon?

You're right Hans. I deleted a field, then re-inserted it and it came with the large moving handle in the top left corner of each box. However, I'm thinking we shouldn't have to replace each field from the Field list to get the form to work properly. Any other suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

You don't need to Delete them.
Hans suggested you use the Remove button on the Arrange tab. The Remove button removes the controls from the Layout, but does not delete them from the form.
